1. A Client Who Sought a Busan Voice Phishing Attorney
This is the story of a client who sought a Busan voice phishing attorney.
The client explained that he had been the victim of voice phishing and asked us to represent him in filing a criminal complaint, requesting our help so that the voice phishing perpetrator could receive clear punishment.
The harm to the client, as understood by the Busan voice phishing attorney, was as follows.
The client received a call from a voice phishing criminal organization claiming to be “Manager OOO of the Financial Supervisory Service” and stating that “a card in the client’s name had been used overseas and that illegal funds were being circulated through an account in the client’s name.”
He was then told, “to prove that you are a victim of identity theft, withdraw all the money in your account and bring it in cash, and we will return it after verification.” Alarmed, the client withdrew all of his money, went to the location directed by the criminal organization, and handed over the money.
The client handed over tens of millions of won per occasion over several days, and the Busan voice phishing attorney’s client was defrauded of nearly 500 million won in total.
2. Voice Phishing Explained by a Busan Voice Phishing Attorney
The Busan voice phishing attorney’s client explained that he had been the victim of voice phishing.
🔗Voice phishing is a compound of “voice” and “phishing,” meaning to hook a person through a telephone voice call.
It is a crime carried out by a method of deceiving and threatening victims to defraud them of personal information, financial transaction information, money, and the like.
Because voice phishing involves deceiving and threatening victims to defraud them of money, the crime of fraud under the Criminal Act applies.
Criminal Act Article 347 (Fraud) (1) A person who deceives another to obtain the delivery of property or acquires a pecuniary benefit shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 20 million won.
The crime of fraud is punishable by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 20 million won.
3. Representation in Filing a Complaint Undertaken by a Busan Voice Phishing Attorney
The Busan voice phishing attorney undertook representation in filing a complaint on behalf of the client.
A complaint regarding the harm suffered was filed with the police, and as a result of the investigative agency’s investigation, some members of the criminal organization were identified and apprehended.
The voice phishing perpetrator in question was a cash collector who was suspected of having delivered about 100 million won of the client’s loss.
Defending the Position of the Busan Voice Phishing Attorney’s Client
The Busan voice phishing attorney defended the client’s position so that the voice phishing perpetrator would receive proper punishment.
The perpetrator in this case also took part in offenses against the client as well as other victims.
Accordingly, the perpetrator’s offense was not a single occurrence but was repeated several times, and it should be regarded that he clearly acted with intent to commit fraud and defrauded the client of money.
The money the client was defrauded of was all the property the client had, money the client had set aside in preparation for old age.
For some time the client could not sleep and even reached the point of losing the will to live.
The voice phishing perpetrator took not only the client’s money but also a lifetime of effort and the client’s life.
The perpetrator must achieve recovery of the victim’s loss and, at the same time, receive clear punishment so as to fully bear that responsibility.
4. Result of the Busan Voice Phishing Attorney’s Representation in Filing a Complaint
As a result of the representation in filing a complaint undertaken by the Busan voice phishing attorney, the perpetrator in the client’s case was sentenced to 2 years and 3 months’ imprisonment.
Even if he did not lead the offense, as long as he performed the role of cash collector, a role indispensable to completing the offense, severe punishment commensurate with that role was unavoidable. The punishment was imposed on the grounds that the victims’ losses had not been recovered and that he had not received the victims’ forgiveness.
Voice phishing is a crime carried out in a planned and organized manner against an unspecified number of victims. It continuously produces extensive harm, and because most victims are ordinary citizens, the likelihood of recovering their losses is slim.
If you fall victim to voice phishing, you may lose all your money in an instant. If you have suffered such harm, you should ask a Busan voice phishing attorney to represent you in filing a complaint so that the perpetrator receives severe punishment.
